Bad Religion Sk8-Hi re-release at Vulcanized Vinyl
Every year the SXSW (South by Southwest) takes place in Austin, TX. It's a mix of conferences and festivals that offer a unique convergence of original music, independent films, and emerging technologies.
This year, Vans and Nice Kicks are joining forces at SXSW for the Vulcanized Vinyl Pop-up Shop. Classics, California models, tees, tanks, and accessories will be on sale in addition to a limited edition Vulcanized Vinyl tee.
More interestingly (for Bad Religion fans at least), for the first time ever, Vans is re-releasing five of their most popular band shoes on a first-come, first-served basis. This includes makeups for Slayer (3/13), Descendents (3/14), Bad Religion (3/15), Iron Maiden (3/16), and Social Distortion (3/17).
So this is actually today! Sorry for the late report on this!
The Vulcanized Vinyl Pop-up Shop is located at 313 ½ E. 6th Street and will end on March 18th; it's opened from noon to midnight each day.

Bad Religion at the Reason Rally
That Bad Religion will be performing and Greg Graffin will be speaking at the Reason Rally on March 24 should not be news to you. But to warm you up a little, here's a short interview with Brett, Greg and Jay from GV30 on December 17th.

Show was sick; they played Beyond Electric Dreams & pretty much owned everything else at that circle jerk of a show featuring athiest books to buy. I was the guy the in the black jacket w/ big white headphones & grey shoes in the front.
Sadly, not too much crowd choir this time around but for a rally it was pretty small. Overall really pleased with the setlist, improvs, & Greg's excellent vocal callbacks to some of the studio quirks (Do what you want, for example). They were on top of their sh*t at this show. |

Here is how I predict the set will go at the Reason Rally this Saturday:
1. Slaves 2. God Song 3. Faith In God 4. Live Again 5. Meeting Of The Minds 6. Operation Rescue 7. Heaven Is Falling 8. Atheist Peace 9. Richard Dawkins, James Randi, Taslima Nasrin, and Eddie Izzard join the boys on stage to lead a confusingly irrelevant, unplugged sing-a-long of "It's All Over Now, Baby Blue." |

What's wrong with My Poor Friend Me? Also, why not Sorrow as the opening song too??? You don't like it enough? |

This makes me think they will put a good deal of thought into the set list.

Because people confuse having WRONG opinion with fundamentalism.

Dawkins has the attitude of a fundamentalist, but the things he says are certainly very reasonable (regarding religion).
Awesome interview! |

I'd rather not see them on stage with fundamentalists like Dawkins.

Meh, those aren't THAT great. The design could have been better. And I just bought Sk8-hi's a couple months ago. Not in the market anymore :(
